Description
A light and refreshing salad made with thin cucumber slices, creamy Greek yogurt, and cottage cheese, flavored with fresh dill and lemon.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large cucumbers
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- 1/4 cup cottage cheese
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Slice the cucumbers thinly and place them in a large bowl. If cucumbers are very watery, sprinkle a little salt, toss, and let sit for 5-10 minutes, then pat dry.
- In a separate bowl, mix the Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, dill, lemon juice, salt, and pepper until well combined, breaking up the cottage cheese slightly for a smooth dressing.
- No cooking is needed; pour the dressing over the cucumbers and toss gently to coat.
- Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to let the flavors blend. Adjust seasoning as needed before serving.
Notes
Best consumed within 2 days for optimal crispness. If cucumbers soften, drain any excess liquid before serving.
